Raspberry Pi demos at STIC/Phoenix

I'm hoping to be able to demo the Pi running both Raspbian and RISC OS Squeak/Scratch at STIC but there are some logistical problems that I need to work around. If anyone one the list can help, please let me know.

My aim is to get a couple of Pi's hooked up, so I'd need (aside from the 2 Pi) 2 HDMI capable displays with the hdmi cables (largish screen modern TVs would do), 2 usb keyboards, 2 usb mice and 2 micro-usb cellphone chargers. Phoenix is a biggish city so I imagine there is some loose equivalent of Fry's Electronics in the area, which may be one way of solving (some of) the problem. I'm pretty sure I can arrange to leave some Pi with whoever can help me out.

So - anyone residing nearby, or intending to travel by land to STIC? Got an hdmi display you could bring along? Spare kbd/mouse?

Useful random insult:- Puts a finger in his ear so the draft through his head isn't annoying.

I live in the Phoenix Metro area and will be able to help with at least one set of kit (Monitor, Kb, mouse, charger).

Excellent news, thank you. So far it looks like I'll be signing up to do a 'lightning talk' and otherwise hanging around the camp smalltalk a lot of the time. I should be around late Sunday until early weds.
